I swore I was through writing about politics, but I must confess, I am an addict. I can only be cured on Nov 5. So, one more time"
10 Reasons to Vote for McCain/Palin
- Obama is an Arab. How do I know this? I heard it on TV
- Palin and her husband support the Alaska Independence Party. I think it's a great idea. If Alaska becomes independent, and joins OPEC, and even if it gets taken over by Russia, whatever, we will be far more dependent of foreign oil, which will raise the price, and be a tremendous boost for alternative energy and energy independence. So, go Sarah! You betcha! Free Alaska now!!!
- McCain supports our troops, and wont leave Iraq until we win the war and defeat the enemy. What's that? Who is the enemy, you ask? It's the terrorists, Al Qaeda, or maybe the Shiites, or maybe the Iranians, and those who backed Saddam, or wait, that's the Sunnis. Well, whatever, I know they're all Arabs, just like Obama (see #1)
- McCain will fix our economy. He knows how to do this. He has done it before. He will cut taxes and cut spending. He knows that our problem is money. He will outlaw money, and abolish the government, except for the defence department.
- McCain has a plan to fix social security. Put it all in the stock market. That will make it safe for all of us.
- If Obama, the socialist terrorist, becomes President we will have socialism. Where the government owns shares in the banks, buys an interest in major private companies, and injects money into the market at will. Oh. Um... never mind.
Well, that it. I know I promised 10, but that's all I could come up with. Im sure some of you can provide the missing 4.

Sia, actually I might need an operation. I think my tongue has become permanently lodged in my cheek. It must be a reaction to the news over the past three months. Maybe if I throw away the TV and stop reading newspapers, I can be cured.
Hopefully we will all be cured and we can snap out of it on Nov. 4th!
Most critical thinkers have that problem and as a result, highlight some important issues with a spoonful of sugar to make the medicine go down.
Once the medicine is down, per chance it will actually be thought about, and once thought about, will cause people to act in their best interest. Maybe actually see issues, see the real problems in our country that need fixing and how to effect changes.
Unfortunately, the solutions aren't in the hands of just one person, one party, but the choices made can be a start on the path of recovery--especially if "we the people" actually participate. And continue to participate after Nov 5th.
Rolling Stone article on McCain
My man, John McCain -- "Maverick is his name" (I'm singing, Sy).
Quite rampant across a broad demographic spectrum.
Sy, I am sorry for your brain loss.
(Good one!)
...........How would you feeeeeeeeeeeeeeel
to be on your own
no possessions oooooooooooowned
a compleeeeeeeeeeeete unknown
like a roooooooooooleeeeeeeeeeng stone.......................
He . . .is my idea of a political Maverick.,
but whatever rings your bell
The 21st Political Maverick
7. McCain is a maverick. This means he doesnt agree with anyone, either democrats or republicans. A great example of bipartisanship at work to save our nation. He can follow in the footsteps of our current president, who sets the pace in how to get everyone to hate you.
I screamed "OH NO, you too??!!!"
You just cant get away from it. So, why fight it, right? I think there is a 12 step program for me somewhere.
Geez, just think, that means in two years we get to start the fun again..... arrgh.
If not..vote for McCain Palin because they call me friend.
Is there some sort of a twelve step program that we can attend?
Okay, do I get the bizarro gold star?
1. No more debates. Check
2. Wonder what Cathy Crowley, Donna Bash, Gloria Borger, Paul Begala, etc. etc. are going to be doing after Nov 5. Im not worried about Jeff Toobin. He will just write another bestseller. (#$%^#^)
3. Try to forget the names of all the pundits, like those above.
4. DO NOT WATCH the tracking polls
5. DO NOT hold my breath waiting for the October surprise. (It will have to be a good one this year).
6. DO NOT POST ANY MORE ARTICLES ON POLITICS ON GATHER!!!!!!!!!!!
Thats a tough one, but I promised, and I will try hard. OK, thats half of 12, so I will stop there.
For a moment there, I thought that you had had a momentary lapse of reason.
I mean what about "his middle name is Hussein so he must be evil"
or "Joe Biden Plagarized in a speech with a quote that could have been said by anyone so there is no way he should be VP"
Or "Obama made a back door deal to get our troops out of Iraq after he becomes president and that McCain being the Patriot that he is promises if elected he will keep them there for 100 years. Which will help the economy because we give 10 billion a month to Halliburton to support American businesses"
Or "Palin promises us a moose in every pot"
If everyone keeps contributing we might reach 40.
.........Hint: It starts with an "O"...........
Berf and Nippy, please keep it clean. Well, on second thought, nah.
9. It'll piss off the French.
10. Do it for the precious children. The ones who will be paying their share of the National Debt back to China. But not with their tax dollars. In fact, screw the debt. We'll just send checks to everyone again.
I was on a thread where the issue of Wasilla charging rape victims for rape kits was "debunked" (despite the police chief's direct quote) because no rape victim had come forward to show her receipt. It was his contention that without that proof, it must be discounted. I asked if he would do the same for the myriad of baseless allegations against Obama. He said, "Exactly which unsubstantiated allegations?"
